Overview

On this tour we will get to know the cradle of Mexican muralism, the most important artistic movement in all of Latin America, and how it has evolved over the years, taking over public spaces for great artists to paint our identity, we will explain the first murals by Diego Rivera, Siqueiros, Orozco, and their students visiting a typical market where the first foreign women painted. We will see the contradictions and criticisms of muralism.
We will explain the current urban art scene, the graffiti that today is an essential movement to get to know art in the CdMx. It started as vandalism, but over the years it has become the movement that has changed neighborhoods and saved lives. On this unique tour in Mexico City, you will learn about the history of these two movements and you will live the experience of making your own aerosol graffiti.

Antiguo Colegio de San Ildefonso

Considered one of the most important cultural spaces in national life, the Antiguo Colegio de San Ildefonso is one of the most important colonial buildings in the historic center of Mexico City. This building is also known for its relevance within mural painting, since it is considered that the Mexican muralism movement began on its walls. Paintings by Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros and José Clemente Orozco, among others, are reflected in it. For more than six decades it continued to be the cradle of several generations of intellectuals and prominent personalities.

Abelardo L. Rodriguez Murals

This was the second most important market built in Mexico City in the first decades of the 20th century, after the Dos de Abril market built in 1912. Like its predecessor, the Abelardo L. Rodríguez market was intended to be the prototype for a new and more modern popular market. The most distinctive feature of this market is the approximately 1,450 square meters of space, between walls and ceiling, covered with murals. These murals were painted by and under the direction of Diego Rivera's students. The murals reflect socialist themes, in part due to the policies of the Mexican government at the time, which tried to promote the benefits of the 1910 Mexican Revolution. They also reflect the concerns of the artists during this time period, giving rise to themes such as the exploitation of workers, peasants, and miners.

Ex Fabrica

What is now the Ex Fábrica MX, used to be a flour factory in the 1940s. It was abandoned and years later, and following global trends to regenerate abandoned spaces, Living+SLVK rehabilitates the old Flour Factory to transform it into an Art District where expressions of urban art stand out. There is no doubt that it is a space different from any other in CDMX, full of urban expressions such as graffiti, it has become a super instagrammable place due to its striking colors and figures that steal glances.
